Youk needs to stay on this team. You don't trade away one of your best clutch hitters, and a guy that works the counts, helps to tire out the pitchers, and has a high OBP. A-Gon is the guy that I can't stand. He is soooo soft. He never gets a big hit. Even with his impressive numbers last season, he wilted against the good teams when it mattered most. I'd rather put Youk back at first and trade A-Gon. (But that's probably not feasible. )

I don't give a sh it about the ups! Lester has got to get it together! Beckett has taught him to cop an attitude with every f'n pitch! THAT's why the umps squeeze our guys! These guys need to grow the F up!

Lester's problems are of his own making. He gets behind and throws too many pitches. He's yanking the ball. Scott helped him by striking out on a bad pitch. Then Salty saved him a run with a nice pick. But Lester coughed up the cookie.
